Top 11 Personalized Gifts At Walt Disney World

11. Personalized Accessories Leather bracelets and more – Canada in Epcot, Frontierland in Magic Kingdom and Pirates of the Caribbean gift shop.

Here you can choose from 100% genuine leather bracelets or key chains, around $10, with free engraving. I think this makes a great personalized gift for someone back home, or even for yourself to remember your time at Walt Disney World. The price makes it an affordable option and the variety of color/style choices makes it easy to personalize.

10. Ring Engraver – found in the parks and Disney Springs – one in Mexico/Epcot, and in the Adventureland/Frontierland entrance in Magic Kingdom

You pick the base ring and the artist carves the initials into the ring you choose and you return later to pick up the finished ring.

9. Full Color Portraits, Silhouettes and Caricatures – available in several of the parks and Disney Springs and the price is much lower than the number 1 selection below.

Of course the quality is not as high, but these artists do it while you or your child sit there with them. These are also available at the France pavilion in Epcot’s World Showcase; Liberty Square in Magic Kingdom; and alley off of Main Street U.S.A.

8. Japan Pearls – Mitsukoshi store, Epcot World Showcase

This section is a modern-day version of the old pearl-diving where cast members actually had to dive down in the water to choose an oyster and bring it back up to you. You now get to choose your own oyster that is then opened by a very pleasant cast member who cleans it, shows it to you, and explains what type, color, and size of pearl you have found. You can then choose to take the pearl as it is put into a small bag, or choose to have your pearl(s) mounted on jewelry findings. When you wear your pearls you will remember how much fun you had at Disney World choosing your oyster and the surprise of seeing a special pearl. For a far less expensive option in this same store if you buy a fan they will write your name on it in Japanese. The fans are nice too!

Personalized build-your-own Lightsabers and Droids. If you are a Star Wars fan this is a MUST DO! There are so many different parts/colors to use to make it all your style. Feel the force and make a Lightsabers!
